Transformation


Valery Starsky - 2018
    The 1st place winner of the literary contests: "RealRPG", "Cyberpank&Science fiction" . All the three books of the series became top-5 of bestsellers in 2017-2018 years at www.litnet.com. There are planned 5 books of the series "Transformation". If you like to read books about fire-breathing giant creatures, dark elves reigned absolute and unchallenged, the money-grubbing dwarfs and powerful dragons–all of them you will meet at the pages of Transformation. The familiar world collapsed overnight. As the Transformation progressed, disasters occurred throughout the Earth. Materials changed their properties, new species of flora and fauna appeared. The Game converted our world into a huge dungeon, completely replacing the previous civilization. However, the alien plans for Earth began to go awry from the very beginning. The conversion was less successful than expected. An ordinary young man stole the bonus for the first gaming action, depriving the invaders of their perk. How can he manage the situation? Which of the aliens will become his ally? Which ones are his enemy? Dare they rebel against the all-powerful invaders, regain their land and even create a new world? P.S. The book was edited for one more time and now it's much better. Enjoy your reading!
